Empower World: The Coaching and Leadership Podcast

In this episode, Christina Zini, an ICF-credentialed coach with extensive leadership experience with some of the world's leading organisations, shares her vision of what a modern successful leader is and how coaching can support that success in numerous ways. As Christina describes in this podcast, a modern leader can engage, inspire and invite their team to tap into their resourcefulness, wisdom and talents to identify ways forward and navigate the ongoing opportunities and challenges all teams face today effectively and ecologically.

In this episode, Marie and Tony Adamson explore Tony's first year of working as a full-time coach and the questions he has been asking himself about staying true and authentic to who he is when bombarded with so many different coaching models and philosophies. They begin with talking about Tony's focus on Voluntary and Community Sector managers who are feeling exhausted, to help them avoid burnout so that they get their mojo.

Colluding with our client’s stories can lead to stifling our client’s growth. Believing or going along with our client’s beliefs potentially move the relationship from coach and client where the client is supported and challenged to expand their perspectives and thoughts to a friendship role. In this podcast we share what collusion is and how we can prevent it in support of our client’s growth.

Coaches need to be aware of potential power dynamics in coaching because they can play a key role in shaping the coaching relationship and outcomes. Understanding these dynamics is essential to maintain an effective partnership between the coach and the client. Power imbalances arise due to many factors between the client and coach - including beliefs about self and others. They can impact communication, trust and a client's willingness to be open and engage in the coaching process, or a coach's ability to challenge and express what they are noticing. Coaches must be aware of themselves and the client's behavioural patterns to notice when dynamics come into play to ensure clients are served, heard and stretched in relation to their awareness so they can make empowering decisions.

Coaches can sometimes get caught up with trying to find powerful questions which can lead to greater insights, awareness and processing of experiences for the client but the coach can sometimes miss the clues the client is going deeper. Those clues may be very subtle but if the coach is paying close attention to their client they can continue to support the client even more powerfully. Find out what this means in this podcast episode with Marie and Jeanine.

Effective, powerful leadership and coaching are very interconnected. This is because coaching skills - such as holding space for people, deep listening, asking thought-provoking questions, effectively providing feedback, and getting curious about the person, team, ideas, emotions, energy, intuition, and much more - within systems support engagement, wisdom and inspiration to come together and find a way forward. Katie Mapondera shares some very interesting insights about what really effective leadership is through her own experiences and what she has learned.

Empower World Links: Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/empower-world Apple: Empower-World-the-coaching-and-leadership-podcast/id981112489 We share our collective intention to nurture conditions in communities of change makers, to support, enable and deepen their potential to radically shift systems, structures and processes that can provide pathways to the better worlds that are sought. Here’s a review of the key messages from this episode, based on elements of the co-created dialogue: Holding Space – Holding space for whatever needs to come in to happen, for communities to discover, acknowledge and share the most important things for us to sustain ourselves & for change on every level. Systems Change – Bring in new thoughts to invite outcomes which are good for us & the broader system, hopes, vision & dreams, changing yourself is to change the system. Co-creating change – A lot of people talk about change, what counts is how you make it happen. Hopeful for changing what must be changed, a self-full feeling to nurture & be part of this – it was like a light going on We change – Through the process of unfolding & refolding the terrain gets richer, is different, new & changing. Allowing yourself to be open to what is emerging, the journey to beauty can be dramatic in the fullness & extent of what needs to change. What’s yours to do? Something we can all think about Place - Fundamentally this is going to land in place, through activators of place-sourced potential. Working with fellows in place, change is going to morph & spread & evolve Solutions – We don’t need to do anything dramatically different, the solutions are already there.
